said a State official today who has
known him for years. "This revelation
of his sectionalism is convincing many
that he would not be a suitable can
didate for Governor. For every bank
er. every business man, every owner
of North Carolina bonds, every cit
izen of the State whose property is
pledged to protect the State’s bonds,
will follow from now on lack con
fidence in the sincerity of Mac Lean’s
interest in the State as a whole.',’
Nor can Mao Lean expect any ma
terial support for the Governorship,
if he becomes a candidate, from
members of the 1931 general assembly.
For reports reaching here are to the
effect that a majority of the members
bitterly resent his declaration that
present conditions in the State are
largely due to "the lack of moral cour
age” on the part of the members to
levy sufficient taxes, especially when
they known that Mac Lean himself sev

Basketball Tournament for rural and
special chartered high schools of
North Carolina will be conducted this
year on Thursday. Friday and Satur
day. March 4. 5 and 6.
J. F. Miller, director of physical
education at State and In charge of
the tournament, says trophy cups will
be awarded to the first two teams
finishing in each class. In addition,
nine players on the winning team of
each class will be given individual
gold basketball charms.
A. G. Spalding Championship cups
will be presented to each o fthe win
ning tains for a period of one year.
Class A will be composed of chartered
high schools and Class B. rural high
schools.
The tournament annually brings
around 600 high school students to
State College. Mr. Miller says he ex
pects this year’s tournament to be the
largest in recent years. All of the
games will be played in the Frank
Thompson gymnasium. Two games
will be erun off simultaneously until

Last year’s Class A was won by
Shelby of Cleveland County. Class B

eral times refused to vote for mea
sures designed to “get the money
where the money is.” It is true that
for weeks Mac Lean seemed to exer
cise a sort of hypnotic spell over
many members of the house, so that
many would not vote on any impor
tant matter without first consulting
Mac Lean or waiting to see how he
voted. But it was more out of fear
than out of love or admiration that
the house members acted as he said.
And many now realize that they were
badly fooled in following' him.
Mac Lean’s reply to the statement
issued by A. J. Maxwell, in which
Maxwell challenged the correctness of
many of the statements attributed to
Mac Lean, is considered here as being
a very weak effort to justify his at
tack upon the general assembly. In
this reply, Mac Lean admits he and
the other members of the 1931 general
assembly “left Raleigh—and I accept
my own share of that responsibility—
with a deficit in sight of from 32,-
OOOfOOO to $5,000,000, again depending
on widely variable figuree.” This is
taken to mean that Mac Lean admits
he lacks just as much “moral courage”
as any of the other members of the
legislature.

The game will count on the con

The Henderson team, although they

Chamberlain Incident Is
Looked On As Confirming
Determination Os Japan
By CHARLES P. STEWART
Central Preas Staff Writer
Washington, Jan. 12.—0 h. yea; the
fapanese have apologized for the lick
ing given .6 United States Consul
Culver B. Chamberlain at Mukden re
cently.
The three Japanese soldiers (or two
soldiers and one interpreter), who
stopped the consul’s automobile and
(notwithstanding its American flag
and the United States coat-of-arms
on its door) administered the licking
to its accupant, have been disciplined.
Nevertheless. Consul Chamberlain
was licked, and all Americans, who
may be interested in knowing, were
clearly informed why.
That was part of the apology.
The consul was licked, as explains 1
by Lieutenant Colonel Matsui. atach
cd to the staff of General Honjo, com
mander of the Japanese forces in
Manchuria, because the soldiers "con
sidered his manner insulting, arrog
ant and provocative."
What's more, nothing that the State
department has given out justifies the
impression that the Japanese in high
est authority do not believe that he
was "insulting, arrogant and pro
vocative." The impression is. rather,
that Japanese officialdom sees fit to
apologize even though he was "in
sulting, arrogant and provocative."
"Sees fit," is the correct way of ex
pressing it, too.
If the Japanese “see fit" to do so
and so they will do it, because they
“see fit"—not because they are bluffed
or scared into doing it.
Folk who are best acquainted with
the Japanese have not much doubt
that the circumstances of the Cham
berlain incident were about like this:
The consul traveling by automobile
to the Mukden railroad station, to
take a train for his new post at Har
bin, was stopped by a Japanese patrol.
Being in a hurry, maybe, he was im
patient. Maybe not. His friends here
say he is a mild, courteous individual
Presumably he was ,in the present in
stance. Still, It is a fact that the white
men in the orient frequentl yare rough
with the Chinese. This will not do at
ail in Japan. For example It is safe
enough for a foreigner in China to
deal with a 'ricksha coolie in a fashion
that first would get him mobbed and
then land him in jail in Nippon, Such
mishaps occasionally befall tourists
who are unaware of the difference be
tween the two nationalities.
It is evident that Lieutenant Col
onel Matsui thinks the soldiers who
licked Consul Chamberlain had a cer
tain amount of excuse for it, for he is
quoted as saying:
"The Japanese are proud; they can
not be treated Uke the Chinese."
Now, one can be reasonably certain
that, whether they blame Consul Cham
berlain or not. the Japanese authori
ties are glad that what occurred, did
occur.
They cannot very well indorse It.
on account of the American flag and
the United States coat-of-arms.
Not that they, are afraid, but they
the neighboring cities have always
been traditional rivals. Last season
Henderson took two games on the
basketball floor .-.from the Oxford
high boys and they arp expected to
make a determined bid this season
to revdpge those two defeats. They
will have ample opportunity to do this
since the teams-.will clash twice dur
ing the season, once in Oxford, which
Is tonight, and again here later in
the season. ’ •
The same seven men which faced
Bethel Hill hece last Friday night and
who won their game for Henderson,
will probably see action again tonight,
against Oxford. The Henderson boys
also have another game this week,
this h*lng with Oxford Orphanage on
Friday night in this city.
arc scrupulous In such matters.
All the same, foreigners in Man
churia have had a lesson. If they are
licked, apologizes may follow, but the
fact will remain that they have been
licked.
Leaving the equation of Consul
Chamberlain entirely out of consider
ation. the affair gives rise to some
serious reflections.
While no right-minded person, of
course, can defend the conduct of
Caucasians in Asia who are in the
habit (not to intimate for an instant
that Consul Chamberlain should be so
classified) of treating orientals like
inferior beings, it is obvious that a
mighty peppery element has been in-
